teacher In your district being such poor one, A"
said an Iowa county superintendent Of schools to
a member OF a school board who called with
complaint. ale is not, OF course, the best teacher
we have, but he works hard, and think you will
Ike him better before the term Is out. His great
est failing seems to he that he Is rather too lOQua

Ahortly after went 70 t6e holseM e r.

II may occur 70 the inquiring mind that
the residence Of State Senator, repre-.
senting this county in the halls OF the
State Legislature. is an odd and some
what unusual place for men accused of
crime, hot from the custody Of the Law,
to occupy in armed defiance of official
authority. Doubtless, however, the
Colonel would b as indignant az some,
of his friends If he knew it. Bot again
We digress:-The O'Neils were brought
TO Eiko. where their preliminary exami-
nation for cattle stealing was held be-
fore Justice Morgan, by whom they.
were each bound over in the sum of
$4,000. There is hanging over their
heads score or more OF similar. charges
which will probably occupy the atten-
ton Of the next Grand jury. AS for
Dicks coat, let Petit Jury determine
through whose agency it's gaping
wounds were caused; in the meantime
there is food fol! reflection in the mys-
terious omission on the part OF the man
with the two ba-reIed gun to hurt either
of the gentlemen, late of White Pine.
The offer of thousand dollars re-
ward by W.T.. O'Reil for the arrest of
the shot gun man, who enabled Dick
and Bill to escape. looks like a cold
blooded bluff made as a bid for public
sympathy, in view Of the fact that Mr..
O'Neil we'll knows, and for some time
has been aware of Bottoms whereabouts,
as I am credibly informed. However
that may be, if the thousand dollars ia
placed in the hands of any responsible
business man in Elko county, am in
structed to say by man s0ho knors that
O'Eeil will not have occasion to long
mourn the absence of Bolton. But Bill
don't want Bolton and does want ito
keep) the reward; hence Bolton il a
simpler thing to get at than the
thousand dollars. For, many reasons,
best known to the Messrs. O'Neil, I
predict that the thousand dollars nor
any other sum will ever be deposited
where it can find its way into the pos
session Of the man who stands ready to
comply with the conditions of the pub
lished offer. ~-~-.r
I shall be surprised il the terms OF
the offer are not speedily changed from
an offer to pay for the arrest, to can
offer to pny for the arrest and con-
Uietion; then the money is safe, for AS
Bolton committed no ofFense against tie
O'Neis he can never be convicted of
their charge. =. E1r.@. ><
